Transform Coordinates
Remarks
Derived at Station Y in April 1989 using 572 transit satellite passes. Computed value for dZ was -96.42 but -96.38 has been utilised. Replaced Malongo 1987 to WGS 84 (3) (code 15791) in 1989. Replaced by Malongo 1987 to WGS 84 (2) (code 1557) in 1990.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert Malongo 1987 to WGS 84 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert Malongo 1987 (EPSG:4259) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method with 10m accuracy.
How do I transform Malongo 1987 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4259 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the Malongo 1987 to WGS 84 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:1330) has an accuracy of 10m using the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Africa - Angola (Cabinda) and DR Congo (Zaire) - offshore.
